General Safety Summary
Carefully read the following safety precautions to avoid any personal injury or damage to the
instrument and any products connected to it. To avoid potential hazards, please use the
instrument as specified.
Use Proper AC Power Line
Only the power cord designed for the instrument and authorized by local country should be
used.
Ground the Instrument
The instrument is grounded through the protective earth conductor of the power line. To avoid
electric shock, please make sure the instrument is grounded correctly before connecting its
input or output terminals.
Connect the Probe Correctly.
If a probe is used, do not connect the ground lead to high voltage since it has isobaric electric
potential as the ground.
Look Over All Terminals’ Ratings
To avoid fire or electric shock, please look over all ratings and sign instruction of the
instrument. Before connecting the instrument, please read the manual carefully to gain more
information about the ratings.
Use Proper Overvoltage Protection
Make sure that no overvoltage (such as caused by a thunderstorm) can reach the product, or
else the operator might be exposed to danger of electric shock.
Electrostatic Prevention
Operate the instrument in an electrostatic discharge protective area to avoid damages
induced by static discharge. Always ground both the internal and external conductors of the
cable to release static before connecting.
Maintain Proper Ventilation
Inadequate ventilation may cause increasing of the instrument’s temperature, which will
eventually damage the instrument. So keep well ventilated and inspect the intake and fan
regularly.
